So tired of Richard Sherman - and his antics on ESPN this week

Richard Sherman screaming again - USA TODAY Sports

I love a good cornerback in football. They often create the most exciting plays in the sport, including the pick-6. But I am so tired of the Seattle Seahawks' Richard Sherman. As an athlete, I always shut up and let my play do the talking. What's crazy is Sherman says he does that, then does the complete opposite. The guy is becoming a very good (if not great) NFL player on the field; Off the field, people are running away from him. This kind of routine spells a quick burnout.

I'm no fan of Skip Bayless, but I felt he crossed the line by a mile on ESPN - yawning when asked a question and getting deeply personal with Bayless.

Sad to me he's a Stanford grad. If he were humble and actually did let his play do the talking, he'd be a superstar. Instead, he's turning himself into a super-ass.

I thought the NFL Network folks got it right:
